Me, insecure? I come here to comment on the Cards. When I see sycophancy, I note it. I saw it, and noted it. Simple as.
Jesus dude. Sycophancy! It that really the idiotic reason to convince yourself that you are right?

Well. I see narcissme and the latent insecurity and I just call it out when people get this upset over something that differ from their own self image. Simple as…

With Zay Jones, I think the coaching staff's familiarity with him and his experience in their system is a big deal. None of us knuckleheads on this board have seen him up close and personal on the field and off of it like JG and Petzing have.

I'm not doing cartwheels over this signing, but I do believe that he can be a valuable #3 or #4 WR. His size, positional versatility, and blocking make him a decent fit in our system.

He has been targeted just 11 times, caught 8, its hard to show something with very little opportunities
In a average passing offense he can reach easily 500 yards as wr3

Yeah, no reason at all to get better, and it's smart to double the wages of a nobody player, eh? By that rationale, just sign some UDFA for the league minimum rather than Zay Freaking Jones.
Well, Stout, of course you're right, but I really wasn't focusing or thinking on the WRs in my post. :|

Right. Because I'm on the wrong side of the aisle in the whole "Should we have re-signed Zay Jones and doubled his pay" topic. Sorry not sorry for calling them as I see them. And who said I'm upset? This is a ten second blip on a message board lol

Wow. Defending signing this guy is one thing but the doubling of his salary? I mean does anyone believe we had competition for him.

C'mon, man, this is one to be excited about! A positive signing, team player, worth every penny, has to be given a chance, etc. Choose your excuse/defense of Monti :)

I guess he was signed to a lower salary last year cause of the 6 games suspension

Do we want us to spend cap money or not? :lol:

I really don't care about this signing one way or another. What care about even less is how much we are spending on contracts. We will not spend all the money anyhow.

Add a useful WR is a tough challenge. The draft will require a scouting triumph to get a receiver fast enough to spread the field. The only option I see is Elijah Moore in free agency. He has never played to his ability but definitely has the speed to spread the field. He’s been decent at getting open and has reliable hands. I think he’s been poorly used and has potential.
I thought Moore might resurrect his career in Cleveland. However issues at QB have muddled those waters. I would be fine if the Cardinals took a flyer on Moore. I wouldn't give him big money though.

You are incorrect. We have seen him. We seen him get suspended. We seen him sit out another 5 weeks. And then we saw one nice play.
